Prince Harry and King Charles to meet for a second time ‘next week’: Duke of Sussex is ‘very keen’ to see his father on Invictus Games trip to London and has ‘kept regular contact’ with him after his cancer diagnosis – but he won’t be seeing his brother


Prince Harry is set to meet with his father King Charles for the second times since his shock cancer diagnosis next week.

The Duke of Sussex will be at a ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral marking the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games just two miles from where his father will be attending another event in London at the same time on Wednesday.

Days after the King’s diagnosis in February, the two talked for around half an hour.

Harry, 39, is reportedly ‘very keen’ to see father on his London trip and is said to have ‘kept regular contact’ with Charles, 75, since he announced he had cancer.

After recently announcing he was resuming his public duties, the King is set to attend Buckingham Palace‘s first garden party of the year from 4pm on Wednesday.

The garden party and the Invictus Games ceremony are both expected to finish at around 6pm, allowing the two to meet in person for the first time since February, the Sun reports.

A source told the paper that while Harry is normally ‘5,0000 miles away’ from his father in California, it will be a ‘happy coincidence’ that they will be just two miles from each other on Wednesday.

‘It’s clear he is keen to see his father as he continues his recovery and most people expect another reunion of some kind next week,’ the source added.

However, any such meeting will probably not include the attendance of Prince William.

On Thursday, William is likely to be away from London and he has engagements in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly on Friday.

It is not expected that Meghan will be with Harry at St Paul’s Cathedral.

Another source told the Mirror that the Duke of Sussex has ‘kept in regular contact with his father’ and has ‘made no secret of his desire to see him when he can’.

The source added that Harry was ‘especially concerned’ about his father and hopes that he will be well enough on Wednesday so they can see each other.

Royal sources told the paper that King Charles wishes to see his son.

On Thursday, Harry will meet up with his wife Meghan in Nigeria, where they had been invited to talk about the Invictus Games.

It is the couple’s first visit to the country in West Africa.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will then fly straight back to the US without stopping in Britain.
